Spooky New Resources for Preterite, Imperfect, and Estar with prepositions

For Spanish 1 students, some mythical creature vocabulary words (werewolf, vampire, cyclops, etc.) and furniture in rooms and grammar instruction on Estar + prepositions.  This lesson pairs easily with Spanish 1 Avancemos Unit 5, Lesson 1.

 For Spanish 2 students, use the mythological creature vocab words to practice the preterite and imperfect past tenses.  This lesson pairs beautifully with Avancemos unit 4, lesson 1.

We are so excited to offer these resources to help children learn a getting ready for the day routine.  Also included in the digital download is a night routine for getting ready for bed.  Lego Batman walks kids through the process in a fun and engaging way.  You can use the Powerpoint or the social stories to teach the steps.  Then give the students a daily or weekly checklist (with fun images) to help them do the steps on their own.  

You can print and laminate the charts and check off the boxes with a dry erase marker or print out the batman tokens (included) and adhere them with glue, velcro, or magnets. 

This is great way to remind students the steps to take to get ready for the day (or get ready for bed). The checklists help them be responsible and feel accomplished. This is a great way to guide and remind children with autism in a fun way.

I did a screen cast of an instructional powerpoint that goes over the present progressive tense.  

First the video explains the present indicative and present progressive tenses in English.  

Then examples are given of the two tenses in Spanish.  

There is also a graphic organizer/notes, worksheet, and answer keys available.  Check it out:  video, powerpoint, worksheet.
